Rare But Essential Knowledge: Mahabharata Revisited
emotional stability: be it international or interpersonal: emotional maturity
kindness is the greatest gift
keep your balance, otherwise don’t speak until you gain balance and then speak
holding it in until you explode is not a good strategy!!
speak sweetly, kindly, wisely and you can say almost anything…. communion/communication…
be constructive… don’t lose yourself over the little things
the key to healthy relationships: learn to talk with stability while pressured… the rare art of expressing yourself wisely
human beings [all of us] are incredibly vulnerable creatures…
a kiss does not make up for a cut/punch… speak responsibly or say nothing until you can find a better way
healthy communication takes effort…. and when you are tired and want to not effort, alone at home with family, most important to be attentive to the relationships
worst time to speak is when you are angry
get in touch with your ACTUAL motivation. you are often not angry about what you think you are angry about
anger is just a shroud for hurt
you can say what you need to say IF you can keep your balance
confrontation vs communion… the key is staying stable, in BALANCE
projection vs perception
taking a deeper look at: ‘faith in god gives life meaning’… the essence of ‘faith’ is inner knowing. Know what you know and strive to understand it better.
World History is an accounting of emotional instability.
Clouds part for each of us on only certain portions of the sky…. e.g. Bobby Fischer

current ‘language’ of modern physics is too awkward
always an incarnation of Vishnu around… duality requires two poles to spin around
10 avatars of Vishnu
Imbalance is a vacuum
is life really bliss? or is it really suffering?
Body of glass or of mud?
UFOs AND THE VEDA
golden age just around the corner now… 2025
sustained commitment to attain real and lasting changes
“The Millionaire Next Door”
too much pressure from every angle… internet, friends, news, tv….
“who’ll stop the rain?” it is in the Veda but who is listening?
Should the US supreme court intervene if justice system/judges politicized?
The enlightened age will occur when all religions are recognized as dedicated to the same one thing,
while realizing that the integrity of each nation is determined by the laws of nature unique to that land,
while honoring those not of that land to remain dedicated to their heritage while respecting the integrity and traditions of the land in which they reside,
while also honoring the depth of understanding of the nature of life, existence, science, and spirituality from their and all angles of all approaches/ perspectives,
and knowing that all is unified in harmony and mutual respect when held insightfully and honorably yet remaining strong in the harmonious integrity of their own birthright.

secrets of the fish bowl; also, rudraksha and why herbs work
short term vision…
fish bowl on all levels… tsunami, etc., when a fish bowl is not attended to, fish do poorly, algae grows, gravel dirty, plants do poorly, etc. same thing with global ‘consciousness’… it affects everything from politics, to relationships to weather.
“One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this: To rise above the little things.”

The year of Anger and how it plays out; also, Ancient Secret to Hatha Yoga flexibility and a few Vedic verses explored
Upcoming year predictions are self-evident from watching the news and taking a step back. [as well as jyotish]. 2024: Our planet’s year of Anger, chaos, and conflict in all areas of life will continue throughout the year and well into 2025 BUT it is a clearing out process for good times to follow. The world will then wake up to natural law, wisdom, and in-sight. It is amazing to witness the degree to which mass mentality is so easily manipulated. Yet the grassroots of humanity are always closer the Mother Nature. Wisdom will emerge. Just hang in there for now! Think if it as a tint in the color of the water of the ‘fish bowl’ that will clear. So, watch your anger!
Global events will be evaluated based upon one’s bias. Think about it. What happens in Ukraine, Israel, elections, climate change, borders, etc. etc.
Whatever happens, half the world will see it as great, the other half will see it as disaster. But the big picture is that we are in the phase transition. That is a time when things bubble up in chaos as we have been seeing. But after the chaos of 2024/2025, we will be on the right course. Time and Mother Nature will let us know what that right course is.
Hatha yoga secret to flexibility revealed.
Tight muscles are about the nervous system, not the muscles!

Panditji and Lakshmi will be attending a world peace havan in Varanasi, India in January. I was invited to attend but my Mount Soma duties require me to stay at home. ‘Would have loved to be able to attend.
This week’s unedited notes randomly collected, loosely or directly related to this week’s podcast:
Deep dive into the Shiva Sutras here. Then some practical reflections. How much things would change if people first understood life, then lived accordingly.
karma + prana = mind
there was no beginning
without relative, there is no Brahman
why our worlds intersect…
Brahman is known from the Upanishads alone!!!!
can also see Brahma Sutras 3.3.3 [extricating of nectar] and 2.1.10 [form, taste, etc. not to be found in Pradhana]
devata value defines the process
Shiva Parvati
the fabulous knowledge in the Shiva Sutra and Brahma Sutra

Reflection on Current Events:
When we think of the world situations, let’s think of the children first. Maybe that would help us see things most clearly. Perhaps then, we would think, as number one, to end violence wherever we see it. I don’t know, but maybe economic sanctions make more sense than bombing raids. Doesn’t it? Funding violence doesn’t make all that much sense, does it? I imagine weapons as self-defense is necessary at times. But wasn’t it even Napoleon that said that money is the essential ingredient to war.. something like that. Should we not think first of funding wars but rather think of defunding aggression?
When I think of the world, my heart goes out to the innocent children. Yet it seems so many think first of hate, judgement, retaliation, and money. What about the innocent children? Things would change so much if we first thought of the innocent children. That certainly should transcend greed, power, politics, racism, hatred, judgement, retaliation, and so many vile masters that seem to take precedence in global decision making.
Perhaps we could take some well informed time to reflect deeply and thoughtfully upon the following topics in the context of what is best for our children:
Ukraine/Russia
Israel/Hamas
Iran
North Korea
the world is not as we have been lead to believe
cost of essentials up 18% since Biden took office
wind mills and climate change
electric cars: the reality, pragmatics, and the dream
oil production currently way up in USA
auto insurance double and tripling
hunter biden
AI. artificial intelligence pros and cons
climate change, what is the reality?
Nicola Tesla—unlimited positive energies in our planet.. the earth
What are our priorities?
